Sonnet Xxx: I See Thine Image Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCECE| I see thine image through my tears to night | A |
| And yet to day I saw thee smiling How | B |
| Refer the cause Beloved is it thou | B |
| Or I who makes me sad The acolyte | A |
| Amid the chanted joy and thankful rite | A |
| May so fall flat with pale insensate brow | B |
| On the altar stair I hear thy voice and vow | B |
| Perplexed uncertain since thou art out of sight | A |
| As he in his swooning ears the choir's amen | C |
| Beloved dost thou love or did I see all | D |
| The glory as I dreamed and fainted when | C |
| Too vehement light dilated my ideal | E |
| For my soul's eyes Will that light come again | C |
| As now these tears come falling hot and real | E |
